Magnetic stimulation and ultrasound for bladder control after spinal cord injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests a combination of magnetic stimulation and ultrasound therapy to help improve bladder control in people with spinal cord injuries who have overactive bladder muscles. The goal is to see if this treatment can reduce symptoms like urgency or leakage.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a spinal cord injury at or above the sacral level (confirmed by CT or MRI).
- You have been diagnosed with an overactive bladder muscle (detrusor overactivity) via a urodynamic test.
- You do not have severe bladder problems like tumors, stones, infection, or blockage.
- You do not have severe liver, kidney, lung, or heart disease.
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You can understand and follow the study procedures and give written consent.

This study tests a spinal cord stimulator to help improve bladder and pelvic function in people with a spinal cord injury. You would use a small device placed near the spine that sends electrical pulses to help control your bladder better.
This study tests a non-invasive treatment called transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (TTNS) for people with overactive bladder caused by a spinal cord injury. The treatment involves applying mild electrical pulses to the ankle to help improve bladder control. If you qualify, you will receive the treatment and be monitored for safety and effectiveness.
This study tests whether a spinal cord stimulator (a device that sends mild electrical pulses to the spine) can help improve bladder, bowel, and other automatic body functions during inpatient rehab after a recent spinal cord injury. It's for people who have a non-worsening injury at or above the T6 level and are within 4 months of their injury.
This trial tests two non-surgical treatments—magnetic and electrical nerve stimulation applied to the skin over the sacrum (base of spine)—to help control bladder overactivity in people with spinal cord injury. The goal is to reduce involuntary bladder contractions and improve bladder control.
This trial tests a nerve-stimulation approach to improve bladder control in people with spinal cord injury. It specifically targets bladder problems that require clean intermittent catheter use and includes regular testing over 6 months.
This trial tests whether spinal cord stimulation can help improve bladder and bowel function in people who have had a spinal cord injury for more than 6 months. The goal is to see if this treatment can restore more control and quality of life.
